Dr. James Fallon is professor of psychiatry and human behavior and emeritus professor of anatomy and neurobiology in the University of California, Irvine School of Medicine. His research interests include adult stem cells, chemical neuroanatomy and circuitry, higher brain functions, and brain imaging. He is the author of The Psychopath Inside: A Neuroscientist's Personal Journey into the Dark Side of the Brain.
In this episode, we talk about psychopathy. We get into what it is, how it is diagnosed, its genetics and neuroscience, and environmental factors. We talk about the nature-nurture debate, and if it is possible to change a psychopath. We discuss if it is possible to predict behavior from brain scans, and if behavior is determined. Finally, we talk about the evolution of psychopathy.

Dr. Russ Shafer-Landau is Professor of Philosophy at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. His primary interest is in ethics. He is the author of Moral Realism: A Defence (Oxford 2003), Whatever Happened to Good and Evil? (Oxford 2004), and The Fundamentals of Ethics (Oxford 2010). He is the editor of Oxford Studies in Metaethics, and is the founder and organizer of the annual Madison Metaethics Workshop (MadMeta). He is also the director of the Marc Sanders Prize in Metaethics.
In this episode, we talk about metaethics, and moral realism. We ask what is metaethics, and define moral realism. We go through several challenges to moral realism, like evolutionary debunking arguments, apparent moral variation across cultures, moral foundations theory, and arguments from disagreement. We discuss if and how we can know that an epistemological approach is the best one out there. Finally, we talk about where moral beliefs come from, and the implications that might have for how moral philosophers do their work.

Dr. Steven Churchill is a Professor and past Chair of the Department of Evolutionary Anthropology at Duke University. He is also an Honorary Reader in the Evolutionary Studies Institute and Centre for Excellence in PalaeoSciences at the University of the Witwatersrand. He is a paleontologist who studies the fossil record of human evolution, especially that of early members of our genus (Homo) that lived between about two million to ten thousand years ago.
In this episode, we talk about aspects of human evolution. We start by asking where it starts. We talk about anatomical features anthropologists use to classify fossils, the classification of species, and determining the of a specimen. We get deep into Homo naledi and Australopithecus sediba, two new species discovered by Dr. Churchill and his collaborators. We go through the timeline of our evolution since H. erectus. We discuss the oldest hominin species, and how to compare hominins behaviorally with other apes, primates and other animal groups. We talk about behavioral modernity, and the role of self-domestication in our evolution. Finally, we discuss how speculative is the history of human evolution.

We talk about the traits of monsters, and the different types of horror. We talk about slasher movies, and apocalyptic stories. We get into human universals in horror, what makes for popular monsters, and what makes some films “so-bad-they’re-good”. We discuss the relationship between personality traits and art appreciation. We discuss a study on the relationship between being morbidly curious and more psychologically resilient during the COVID-19 pandemic. Finally, we talk about what an evolutionary approach adds to the picture in literary studies.

Dr. Masahiro Morioka is a professor of philosophy and ethics at Waseda University, Japan. He is the director of Tokyo Philosophy Project, and the editor-in-chief of Journal of Philosophy of Life. He specializes in philosophy of life, life studies, bioethics, gender studies, and criticism of contemporary civilization. He is the author of books like Manga Introduction to Philosophy: An Exploration of Time, Existence, the Self, and the Meaning of Life.
In this episode, we focus on Manga Introduction to Philosophy. We start by asking what is philosophy, and how it can relate to the life of ordinary people. We talk about the philosophy of life and what Dr. Morioka calls “life studies”. We go through concepts and ideas explored in the book, like “now”, “past-present-future”, the fear of death, life as suffering, what it is to “exist”, solipsism, and birth. We discuss antinatalism. We talk about issues in modern industrialized societies, and current trends in Japanese culture and society. Finally, we talk about manga as a cultural phenomenon in Japan and as a medium to explore philosophical ideas.

Dr. Robert Barton is Professor in the Department of Anthropology, Member of the Durham Cultural Evolution Research Centre at Durham University, UK. He is an evolutionary biologist/anthropologist interested in brains, behavior and cognition, using phylogenetic comparative methods to study how these traits evolved. He developed and tested the 'Visual brain hypothesis' for primate brain size evolution.
In this episode, we talk about the evolution of the primate brain. We talk about the relationship between the brain, cognition, and behavior. We discuss ecological and social factors behind the evolution of the primate brain. We talk specifically about sexual selection, social selection, life history, and maternal investment. We talk about the evolution of the cerebellum and its functions. We explain why cognition cannot be disembodied. We talk about the “visual brain hypothesis”. We discuss the growth of the primate brain, and specifically the hominin brain, and ask if there is anything unique about the human brain. Finally, we talk about the evolution of the color red, and what it signals.

Dr. Manvir Singh is Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Institute of Advanced Study in Toulouse. His research program aims to explain why societies develop complex, recurrent traditions such as shamanism, witchcraft, origin myths, property rights, sharing norms, lullabies, dance, music, and gods, as these have appeared in all types of societies across the globe, from nomadic hunter-gatherer bands to complex, industrial, mega-urbanized states.
In this episode, we talk about a recent paper of his, “Human social organization during the Late Pleistocene: Beyond the nomadic-egalitarian model”. We break down the nomadic-egalitarian hunter-gatherer model. Dr. Singh presents his diverse histories model, and we discuss the implications it has for our evolved psychology, and how we think about evolutionary mismatches. We discuss how human societies get organized, the origins of agriculture, the transition to large-scale agricultural societies, and non-agricultural state societies. We also talk about the sympathetic plot in fiction, and its psychological origins. Finally, we discuss how to think about the functionality of beliefs.

Dr. Leonid Tiokhin is Research Fellow at the Institute for Advanced Study at the University of Amsterdam, and a postdoctoral researcher at the Eindhoven University of Technology. Dr. Tiokhin is a meta-scientist who studies the forces that shape how scientists do their work and make inferences from the populations that they study. Much of his research focuses on how incentive structures affect scientific efficiency and reliability, and how we can improve the recognition and reward structures in science.
In this episode, we talk about the institution of science and the production of scientific knowledge, with a focus on the social sciences. We start by talking about the study of science as a social phenomenon, incentives structures in science, scientific efficiency and scientific reliability, deception and honesty in academic publishing, and replications. We get specifically into the social sciences, and discuss evolutionary approaches, problems with cross-cultural research, and testing hypotheses. Finally, we talk about scientific models and how they relate to reality, and if potential reforms to science should apply to it generally or to specific fields.

Dr. Henkjan Honing is professor in Music Cognition at both the Faculty of Humanities and the Faculty of Science of the University of Amsterdam (UvA). He conducts his research under the auspices of the Institute for Logic, Language and Computation (ILLC) and the University of Amsterdam's Brain and Cognition (ABC) Center. Dr. Honing is known as a passionate researcher in this new interdisciplinary field that gives us fundamental insights in the cognitive mechanisms underlying musicality. He published several books, including Music Cognition: The Basics (2021, Routledge), The Evolving Animal Orchestra: In Search of What Makes Us Musical (2019, The MIT Press)–, and an edited volume with a research agenda on musicality entitled The Origins of Musicality (2018, The MIT Press).
In this episode, we talk about musicality. We start with its cognitive components, and then go through: musicality in other animals; the relationship between musicality and language; the evolutionary functions of music; synchrony and social bonding; human universals in music; the neuroscience of music; sexual selection; and if other animals appreciate music.

Dr. Dan Weijers is a permanent Senior Lecturer in the Philosophy Programme at the University of Waikato, in New Zealand. His research specialties include normative ethics (especially hedonism, wellbeing, and experimental normative ethics), applied ethics (especially the ethics of prediction markets; e.g. PredictIt), and interdisciplinary happiness/wellbeing research (especially wellbeing and public policy, philosophy of happiness science, and conceptions of happiness).
In this episode, we talk about wellbeing and happiness. We start with some definitions, and then get into topics like the factors behind wellbeing, and cross-cultural differences in how people think about happiness. We ask if philosophers and religious people are happier. We talk about public policies that target wellbeing, focusing on New Zealand. We discuss hedonism, and Robert Nozick’s experience machine. Finally, we ask if wellbeing can be taught.

Dr. Simon Garnier is an Associate Professor of Biology at the New Jersey Institute of Technology. He is the head of the Swarm Lab, an interdisciplinary research lab that studies the mechanisms underlying Collective Behaviors and Swarm Intelligence in natural and artificial systems (http://www.theswarmlab.com). His research aims to reveal the detailed functioning of collective intelligence in systems as diverse as ant colonies, human crowds or robotic swarms.
In this episode, we talk about swarm intelligence. Topics include: examples of swarm intelligence in biological systems; collective decision-making; aggregation behavior; information; decision-making without brains or nervous systems, and embodied cognition; human crowds and collective intelligence; and phenomena that we could get a better grasp of through swarm intelligence, like human crowd motion, politics, and culture.

Dr. Dario Maestripieri is a Professor in Comparative Human Development and is also affiliated with the Institute on the Formation of Knowledge at the University of Chicago. His current main interests are, a) evolution of human behavior and its biological regulation, b) 20th century European literature.
In this episode, we talk about human nature, individual differences, knowledge, and consilience. We discuss what human nature is, how to account for individual differences in human behavior, and personality. We ask if humans are an aggressive or peaceful species. We discuss the costs and benefits of knowledge and ignorance. We talk about what we can learn about human nature by studying art and literature. Finally, we discuss if knowledge is unitary, the concept of consilience, and how we can reach it.

In this episode, we focus on An Instinct for Truth. We go through some of the traits that characterize (or should characterize) scientists, like curiosity, honesty, skepticism, and intellectual humility. We talk about moral values that orient science, and the importance of failure. We discuss the scientific method, the demarcation problem, and pseudoscience. We talk about the relationship between science and ethics. Finally, we ask if science is a cultural construct.

Dr. Branko Milanović is Presidential Professor at the Graduate Center and a senior fellow at the Stone Center on Socio-Economic Inequality at The City University of New York (CUNY). Dr. Milanović’s main area of work is income inequality, in individual countries and globally, as well as historically, among pre-industrial societies, and even inequality in soccer. His books include “The Haves and the Have-nots: A Brief and Idiosyncratic History of Global Inequality”, “Global Inequality: A New Approach for the Age of Globalization”, and “Capitalism, Alone”.
In this episode, we focus on “Capitalism, Alone”. We start by defining capitalism, and distinguishing mainly between political capitalism and liberal meritocratic capitalism. We talk about China’s political capitalism, and the historical role of communism. We get into economic inequality, and discuss how it is measured, recent trends, what drives it, if it is a problem, and how to reduce it. We discuss specifically Universal Basic Income as a proposed solution. Finally, we ask if capitalism has been a net-positive for global society, and if it is possible to predict its future.

Dr. Tanya Marie Luhrmann is the Albert Ray Lang Professor in the Stanford Anthropology Department. She is a medical and psychological anthropologist, and also an anthropologist of religion. More recently she describes her work as an anthropology of mind. Her books include How God Becomes Real: Kindling the Presence of Invisible Others.
In this episode, we focus on How God Becomes Real. We cover the main hypotheses put forth in the book: people don’t easily have faith in gods and spirits; detailed stories help to make gods and spirits feel real; the way people think about their minds also matters; the sense of response is “kindled”; prayer practice changes the way people attend to their thoughts; talent and training matter; and people create relationships with gods and spirits. We also talk about the role of rituals and religious imagery, the health benefits of religion, comparative phenomenology, an “attentional learning” theory of religion, and the New Atheists.
